PNG will be smaller when the image contains large areas of the same color.
Rasterized vector graphics is usually great for this.
The the image the parent linked to is a perfect candidate for PNG compression.
You have made my day, thanks!
I would imagine the mirror slap and shutter sounds of a DSLR will become distracting in a classroom setting.
Maybe he is using a Pentium 4.
Is your collection really that small?
Yes there is.
There is a horizontal border right across the center.
Why would you ever watch a film on broadcast television?
They always do a huge disservice to the artistic integrity of the film. Constant interruptions with commercial breaks, cutting out portions to fit a time slot, and other shenanigans.
I taught myself to type, from the age of 4, and I do not (repeat do NOT) use the "home keys".
Result: 65wpm, and I've been typing for many hours a day for decades with NO TRACE of carpel tunnel.
thus, not really a fan of the party line typing techniques, and I hope my children never learn those.
Besides: "high school"? What the hell? Like kids won't have tons of typing experience by then?
Better idea still: adults teaching classes where kids can learn to text.</haha>
Same here. I taught myself how to type as a child, and it's radically different from the formal method of typing. I later became proficient in the "correct" method of typing, but still prefer mine.
The reason is my method is much more comfortable, by far. It's slightly, slower than the "correct" method, but I can endure typing like that for hours with zero fatigue.
Some of my fellow workers and students claim they already show signs of Repetitive Strain Injury, while I easily type 3-5x more than some of them (in time and amount) in a day and have none of these symptoms.
but to have much proof that free will doesn't exist, you would have to find a way around the uncertainty principle.
How does the uncertainty principle have anything to do with free will as you or I know it?
Just because a system is unpredictable to an outside observer does not exclude that same system from being deterministic.
Additionally, you would have to prove that neurons rely on QM as a major part in their function. Especially in aiding decision making.
Unless I have been grossly misinformed, all evidence so far suggests that neurons do not rely on QM, and their behavior can be modeled using classical physics.
If you make your ClientRegistry.blob in the steam folder read-only, Steam will work in offline mode indefinitely. It will even work if you save a backup of it for use on other computers and in reinstalls of your OS.
Counter-Clockwise and up?
I've suspected this for a while, which is why I get especially worked up over people who get their jollies tormenting and abusing animals.
It's basically like abusing a child, and is just as sick.
It's only a theory, not fact.
*facepalm*
That is a woefully inaccurate idea of what a theory is.
I've noticed several design suggestions in your code.
